The Tower Tarot Card And The Shadow Of 9/11


Actually this audio essay could instead be titled September The 11th And The Shadow Of The Tower Tarot Card as either of these events could be a somewhat spooky echo or mirror of the other. Though which one truly came first is a bit like asking which came first, the goose or the gander !?! No matter whether on the micro metaphysical quantum level the imagery of the Tarot tower card was somehow influenced by the then future event of nine eleven or vice versa, the shadow aspects of the connection between September the 11th and the Tarot is as mysterious as it is somewhat unsettling ... 







September the 11th 2001 is truly one of those dates that will live on in the collective conscious mind bank of tragedy, just as people remember where they were when they heard of the death of Princess Diana, the assassination of John F Kennedy and even Pearl Harbour - the notorious date 9/11 will forever be etched on the woeful doom and gloom tombstone of horrific global events or in the words of Franklin Roosevelt "a date which will live in infamy".



The Rider Waite Tarot And Religious Imagery



Historians and scholars do not quite agree about the origins of the Tarot, perhaps the Tarot first came into being in Egypt or Italy or France, this ancient form of divination by cards may go as far back as the fourteenth century or for all we know the Tarot cartomancy system may go back even further than the 13 hundreds ...



However we can reasonably assume that because the ancient Tarot encompassed several different belief systems and religions including Judaism, Kabbalah and Christianity, the images on the cards, especially those of the Rider Waite Smith variety, are rooted in fables, indigenous folk stories and biblical writings etc ...



For instance, there's the lovers card, which includes well known imagery based on the creation garden of Eden Adam and Eve story. The lovers card in the Rider Waite Tarot depicts a naked man and woman who most scholars agree are Adam and Eve, whose story of original sin is told in the first few books of Genesis. In the background is an arch angel which serves to remind us that we always have a choice when it comes to right and wrong.  Just behind Adam who stands on the right hand side, is a tree in full bloom and just behind Eve who stands on the left hand side is an apple tree and wrapped around it's trunk and foliage is the serpent ...



The devil Tarot card in Rider Waite Smith decks is also seemingly based on the biblical depiction of that ole devil called Beelzebub also known as Lucifer. The similarity to the horned and hoofed part human part beast devil in Jewish and Christian mythological art to the devil Tarot card illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith is glaringly obvious.



Perhaps it's not so obvious as the lovers Tarot card and the devil Tarot card - but the imagery of the chariot Tarot card could have taken inspiration in Pamela Colman Smiths mind, from the biblical Pharaoh (who may have been Ramesses). We see an ornate carriage or indeed let's call it what it is - a chariot - being pulled by a black sphinx and a white sphinx, the chariot card draws forth @ a rapid pace but it may also be in pursuit of a quarry just as the Pharaoh @ the time of the exodus was in pursuit of Moses and the Israelites ...



Another Rider Waite Tarot card that may be a graphic echo based on a bible story - or indeed bible stories - is the magician card. There are several characters in the bible who could be thought of as having supernatural magician like powers, including Moses whose wand or walking staff turns into a snake and even Yeshua AKA Jesus Christ who famously turned water into wine ... did Pamela Colman Smith think of either Moses or Jesus Christ when she depicted the magician with his arm outstretched to the heavens and hallowed with the sign of infinity !?!

 

The Towers Of Status



Towers, rather phallic in their design have always evoked symbolic associations with the masculine energies of power, might, advancement and wealth.



From the 57 metre tall Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy which was constructed in the twelfth century as well as the 62 metre high Minaret of Jam in the Shahrak district of Afghanistan also built in the 12th century to the 42 metres tall Three Pagodas in the Yunnan province in China built in the 9th century. There are even more recent tower structures such as the 553 metre high CN Tower in Toronto Canada built in the 1970's as well as the Burj Khalifa in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates constructed in the early 2000's which to date is the tallest building in the wOrld standing from tip to toe @ 830 metres and of course the very recent 310 metre high Shard skyscraper tower building in London, the UK, completed in 2012. Magnificent landmarks such as these both old and modern add an unspoken visual statement of prosperity and affluence to established developed countries and developing countries that are on the economic rise ...



The Tower Of Babel As The Forerunner Of The Tower Tarot Card



Perhaps the most famous Tower of all is the biblical / mythical Tower of Babel, which gives an account of the rise and fall of human societal evolution and serves to explain why there is such a wide diversity of human languages. In a nutshell the story of the Tower of Babel goes a little something like this -



Originally, since the time of Adam and Eve, humankind spoke only one shared common language. Anyway human beings started to explore and wander, they literally went forth and multiplied. Furthermore our forefathers and foremothers started to advance in the field of architecture and design, they progressed from building structures out of stone to building with bricks and an early form of mortar. Ancient super cities were created and humans had become clever enough to construct buildings which had more than one level.



Thus the idea was borne to erect a stately tower which would dwarf all other structures in height and esteem, a tower so tall that it surpassed the clouds and reached the heavens. Now as Pride Comes Before A Fall bible lore has it that this angered Yahweh AKA the prevalent God of the old testament. Hence Yahweh punished human kind for assuming they could encroach on his heavenly authority and therefore muddled up the foremost channel of human communication by causing the peoples of the wOrld to speak in many different languages, which were and still are as gobbledegook to a non native speaker ...



Henceforth from the age old metaphorical tale of the Tower of Babel up till now, there has been - to the negative affirmative - a collective association between towers and arrogant over ambitiousness, thunder, lightening, destruction, breakdown, collapse and even fire and furnace, this dark negation is also rather descriptive of the Tower Tarot card in all of it's gory, fearsome evoking imagery ...



Tarot Cards As A Shadow Aspect Of Feared Occurences



In the non Tarot wOrld, Tarot cards get a bad rap due to an uneasiness of the shadow aspect of human nature and occurrences which are commonly held to be negative on a macro and micro level. Many people have a fear of death and so Tarot is avoided due to a fear of the death card appearing in a reading. The ten of swords is another gruesome Tarot card, understandably many people do not feel comfortable @ what a slain man laying on the ground with ten swords all about his dead body, means for them and their life within the context of a Tarot cards reading ...



The Tower Tarot card can represent the shadow eventuality of what has been built up can be torn down, or if you climb a monumental structure of great height you can tumble off it. The Rider Waite tower Tarot card shows a crown @ the top of a fortress like tower being toppled by a lightening bolt from the sky and debris as well as people are terrifyingly depicted in free fall obviously meeting a devastating end ...



Unfortunately life isn't all wishy washy and airy fairy, sometimes the mediocre Prince isn't worthy of the beautiful Princess, the unsinkable caste iron ship of dreams that God himself couldn't sink ended up on the sea bed ... sometimes the fairy tale transmutes to a nightmare, the once great and magnificent tower is now but a crumbling, steaming heap of bricks and mortar ...



Tarot And The Foreshadowing Of Events In The Distant And Near Future



The Tarot is probably the most ancient and mysterious divinatory cartomancy system there is. Divination of all kinds is a way of tapping into all that has been, all that is and all there will ever be. Now this is not to say that the Tarot or other oracles will allow even the greatest seer to glimpse all of the past present and future - for if such divine knowledge was given to us we would surely become like the very people who greatly hacked God off back in the times of ancient Babylon ! Nevertheless the Tarot and other methods of divination open up a portal to the time space continuum of the universal human balance of probability here on planet Earth. In the social, psychological, sociological and political spheres of existence both on the individual micro level and the mass macro level. Peering through the pictorial Tarot window of all that has been, is and will be, surely captures an Akashic record or supernatural impression of events that may occur far, far, far off in the distant future ...



The Tower Tarot Card As An Omen Of September The 11th 2001



The most well known depiction of the Tower Tarot card - and it's afore mentioned imagery - was designed by Pamela Colman Smith in the early twentieth century. The twin towers which stood so boldly in New York were built in the 1970's and nine eleven happened in 2001, nearly 100 years after the Pamela Colman Smiths Tarot deck was first published by Waite ... the imagery of this card that now provokes feelings of associated terror in some, was created by Pamela Colman Smith @ a time that rendered 2001 as being far away in the distant future ...



The day after the terrible happenings of September the 11th, when I lived in Dorset, I visited one of the best friends I've ever had, African George also known as Lawal, a qualified teacher and God loving Christian man. Anyway I remember that one of the first things he said in regards to the terrible attack on the Twin Towers and the peoples therein, was that the events and images captured on still and moving images were disturbingly and uncannily reminiscent of the tower Tarot card.



The tower Tarot card and the shadow of 9/11 are virtually synonymous with one another in the minds of those who both vividly recall the footage and photographs of  nine eleven and also have esoteric knowledge of the Tarot system.



The North Tower / World Trade Center Tower 1, which had a large antenna as it's crowning glory and proudly stood in Lower Manhattan, New York City @ 417 metres tall - was the first tower to be slammed into by a plane @ 8.46am eastern time zone. One cannot help but be struck by how eerily similar that scene of devastation looked to the tower Tarot card. Upon contact between the plane and the North Twin Tower, the impact obviously caused a massive explosion. The scene which can be replayed @ the touch of a smart touchscreen or the click of a mouse is certainly reminiscent of the explosive looking lightening bolt striking the tower depicted on the tower Tarot card.



Again avid Tarot enthusiasts the world over, who switched on their televisions to watch the shocking live broadcast of the North Tower engulfed by smoke and obviously fire, unwittingly became witnesses - as did millions of other people watching - to the ferocity of a plane plunging into the South Tower or World Trade Center 2 @ 9.03am eastern time zone, the South Tower  stood @ 415.1 metres high. For a second time during the unfolding of the horrific events on September the 11th 2001, Tarot readers were once again reminded of the picture on the tower card that shows lightening hitting the ancient tower with such force that it dismantles the crowning glory of the tower itself ...  



The heartbreaking scenes of desperate people fleeing the fiery furnace - that the Twin Towers in their violent demise became - by leaping to their deaths, was so sad, it was so chilling that it has left an undeniable impression on the psyches countless New Yorkers and many millions of others in relation to the association between towers and tragedy.



Most people will agree that the explicit images and footage of people during nine eleven frantically jumping from the two towers to evade burning to death - though nevertheless knowing that they would still surely meet their deaths - bear an unbearably tragic and uncanny likeness to the illustrated people falling from the tower Tarot card ...



The Correlation Between The Meaning Of The Tower Card And The General Feeling Tone Of September 11th 2001 Then And Now



The similarity between the tower card and 9/11 may lend weight to those who denigrate the Tarot as being the devils picture book - but hey, instead of perceiving the glass to be half empty, how about looking @ the glass through the lens of it being half full ! What if the Tarot is a divine, ethereal, wOrldy and universal picture book of what to do and what not to do. The Tarot obviously isn't suggesting that one throws oneself of a high building, unfortunately the extremity of the fire engulfing the Twin Towers was possibly the only sane way of escape on that terrible day.



The Tarot tower card represents chaos, destruction, unexpected and sudden change, conflict, ruination, the crumbling of structures, what goes up may well come down and nightmare scenarios. These various meanings which denote the vibratory aspect of the tower Tarot card are plainly negative and it is also very curious that these said meanings for the tower card also descriptively sum up the general feeling tone of September the 11th 2001.



Perhaps pre 9/11 the tower Tarot card spoke to us in a way which harshly suggested on a personal and individual level what may well occur if we didn't alter our course in terms of thinking and expectation.



Maybe post nine eleven on a more widespread geo political macro level, the tower Tarot card stridently implores humanity to abandon war as the solution to geopolitical problems and to instead return to golden rule politics. Tarot enthusiasts - who also identify themselves as being 9/11 Truthers or being sympathetic to the nine eleven truth movement and ardently or passively pursue the truth as to what really might have happened on that bright and blue but very very dark September day in New York - may now perceive that the Tarot tower card encourages us to tear down and question without remorse or fear, possible political deep state trickery, deception and collusion and to seek the lightening bolt of truth where ever it may shine its luminescent light ...



Spooky Tarot Action @ A Distance & 9/11



Now this essay isn't a lesson in quantum physics but in a vague nutshell spooky action according to Albert Einstein is when two photons travel separately @ different points in time - even light years - but are mysteriously linked, they spookily become entangled, hence there may be hidden elements of reality, though Einstein contented that even hidden elements of reality are somehow determined by physical law ...



Can spooky action @ a distance be applied to the metaphysical transcendental plane !?! If the Rider Waite Tarot tower card had angels encircling the tower as part of it's imagery, would perhaps a strange Einsteinium spooky action @ a distance miracle on that sunny September day have somehow happened ...


The Tower Tarot card and the shadow of 9/11 begs the question which came first the chicken or the egg !?! Was September the 11th after a fashion mysteriously shaped by the Tarot tower card !?! or was the imagery of the Rider Waite tower Tarot card a premonition of the 11th of September, which came first galaxies or black holes ...

The Tower Tarot Card And The Shadow Of 9/11

Dream Interpretation


We all have dreams, sometimes they can be happy, funny, mysterious, scary and nearly always they're surreal in some sort of way! When the conscious mind is @ rest the subconscious mind and it's wondrous forces and processes take the centre stage during the wee hours and transport us to the magickal land of nod where absolutely anything and everything is possible ...







Sometimes when we wake in the morning we can get flashbacks of fleeting moments from the dream we had the night before, when this happens the images are rather vague but there nevertheless may be some type of over-riding theme that we can deduce and make sense of. Other times the flashes make no sense @ all so we dismiss these as being nonsense - and of course some times they are, though sometimes they're not ... 


There can be times when we deep sleep but do not remember the dreams we had - that's indeed if we had any dream @ all. In fact I have a mystical theory about this - when we can't remember whether we had a dream the night before or if indeed we are certain we did not - then perhaps, just perhaps it's because we were elsewhere in the spiritual ethereal realm - namely in someone else's dream, whether that person is known to you and you are known to them or not. It makes you think doesn't it !?!


Other times we can go through a phase of having wildly vivid dreams that we are lucky enough (if the dream was good) to remember. If these types of dreams are simple and straight forward they do not need to be deciphered - for instance the dream may be related to something that you do regularly during your waking life, so it may be an echo from the near past and or future, for instance if you take the train to work Monday to Friday and you're dream depicts this, the lines between past and future can become quite blurred.


@ other times we can have a dream that is so colourful and seemingly real, where we can touch and feel, that we can wake up with an abrupt jolt which transports us back in to our waking wOrld. The dream is easy to recall but it doesn't make any sense, yet there's something about this dream that you can't quite shake off and dismiss, you want to know what it means !?! what does it signify? is it a portent etc ...


Dreams that have a significant meaning are mentioned as far back as Biblical times. There's Joseph who dreamt that the sun, moon and eleven stars bowed down to him, this was an omen, eventually Joseph became the governor of Egypt.


During the same historical era the Bible also makes mention of Pharaohs strangely surreal dream about seven fat cows and seven lean cows, so disturbed was the Pharaoh by this dream and several others he had, that he called upon every dream interpreter in the land to tell him what the dream meant. No one knew, except Joseph who instantly intuited that it meant that there would be seven years of abundance followed by seven years of scarcity. Pharaoh being impressed by Josephs ability to foretell the future by way of dream interpretation, made him the governor of Egypt, hence the dream wheel of fate and fortune turned in a most uncanny way !


Have you had a dream albeit recently or even in the past whether distant or near, that still to this day perplexes you!?! Well Sigmund Freud in his great academic work called The Interpretation Of Dreams theorised that any dream we have no matter how simple, elaborate or disturbing is a result of a waking thought, which then filters through to the subconscious mind via a dream. So bearing this in mind, ask yourself what sort of thoughts you may have had while you are awake that would account for the dream you had? This approach can get to the root of the quandary and solve what your dream really means or @ the very least why you had it in the first place.


If this approach just doesn't work for you, then it may be time to turn to a trusted and reputable dream interpretation analyst, like Joseph, some people have the gift of dream interpretation and prophecy, so whilst you may not have any idea as to what your dream means, these skilled light-workers may know instantly what your dream is trying to tell you, or with a bit of probing will be able to unravel the message that the divine matrix has sent to you through the dream dimension.

Benefits And Zenefits Of Zen Meditation




ZEN is a prominent far eastern philosophy and there are many benefits of Zen meditation but  before we get to that, here's a little about the emergence of this well known practice brought in the sixth century to China and the wOrld by Bodhidharma an Indian monk. However the roots of Zen originally stem from two other schools of thought. Firstly the age old Chinese philosophy of Taoism which is based on living harmoniously with the natural ebbs and flows of the cosmos - and secondly Buddhism which is a belief system based on the teachings of the Buddha, among his core teachings are concepts such as - 



 



i) The existence of suffering

ii) Attachments to outcomes cause suffering

iii) When attachments & desires are set free, so are you 



Learning To Let Go ...



Unlike Buddhism, Zen believes that to become immersed in religious knowledge or to concentrate on theoretical applications of belief systems, even including Buddhism and Taoism is to waste ones precious thought forces ...



Instead Zen, which is also in part derived from Zazan which means "to sit" is a concept centered on letting go of past entanglements that may often ruminate and rumble in one's mind from time to time - or indeed even frequently - and so instead for ones peace of mind, bodily health and fortitude of soul and spirit, it is essential to stay "grounded" in the here and now and to be kind to yourself by letting go of self criticism, regret and judgement; of course it's also vital to extend this to all people, situations and circumstances. 



Thankfulness For BIG and small



Zen Buddhism and Zen meditation also makes it clear that we must learn to appreciate even the smallest things in life, that we once would have shrugged off and overl@@ked ! For instance remembering to be just as grateful for a drop of rain as a walk along the seashore, a blade of grass as much as a field of flowers and a penny as much as a million pounds !!!



The Paradox Of Trying To Clear Your Mind!



Zen emphasizes that it's not enough to attempt to clear your mind of all distractions and thought during meditational practice - because ironically when we attempt to be free of thought we are still thinking. So instead Zazan and Zen teaches us to simply release our minds from thought without er ... thinking about it. Yes this is a bit of anomaly but through practice it is very possible to not become disturbed by thoughts of I must not think during mediation!



Relinquishing Control To Be More Spontaneous!



While as human beings we have a tendency to take up the reigns of control in our own lives and sometimes unwittingly in the lives of our nearest and dearest too, it's important to work in harmony with providence and the natural forces that shape and influence our lives, without feeling threatened, anxious and the need for a brown paper bag to breathe in to when life throws us a series of unexpected events ...



How To Do A Zazan Zen Zenficial Mediation A Day!



The actual physical practice of Zen meditation is nice and simple, you simply need to -



i) Sit - either on the ground or floor 

(to make yourself more comfortable you can sit on a cushion)



ii) Cross your legs 

(but make sure you're still comfortable, please don't contort your limbs!)



iii) Rest your hands on your lap

(both hands should be facing with your palms upwards, one hand inside the other)



iv) Close your eyes and clear you mind

(but try not to think about clearing your mind!)



v) Slooowly and calmly inhale and exhale

(let your inhalations be natural do not inhale for longer than seems comfortable)



vi) Continue to breathe slowly in and out in a controlled manner for 5, 10 or more minutes

(remember to breathe in a controlled way while freeing yourself of all control !!!)



Meditating Your Way Back To Mental & Physical Well Being!



It's quite easy to understand why there are many benefits of Zen meditation due to the relaxed nature of the tradition. Yes us human beings are blessed with the power of our own intellect but sometimes this can become a burden when we over think a circumstance or situation and ploy to plot and map our route so to speak. It can be such a relief to accept that we don't have all the answers and often times we just have to let life happen. Zen helps us to become free from  depression and apprehension in many of it's states and forms because when we think this way we no longer need those brown paper bags !



When we're no longer attached to a specific desire or outcome we don't tend to find ourselves laying awake @ night and during the wee early hours of the morning tossing and turning ... Insomnia - not always but often is related to a restless worrisome mind. The regular practical application of Zen tends to make us feel lighter within due to there being far less mental internal conflict. YOU become the master or mistress of your own mind, instead of vice versa !  Getting enough sleep helps ward off depression and other mind related ailments and disorders. Plus a good nights sleep enhances our immune systems and helps our bodies to regenerate fresh cells and when we're fresh on the inside we sparkle on the outside ! 



Mediating Your Way Back To A State Of Happiness!



When we start to practice Zazan and Zen in a way that is practical as opposed to theoretical, we begin to reap the benefits of Zen meditation not just mentally and physically but also emotionally. You see when we stop deriding and berating ourselves and reverting back to the past and the could have, should have, would have way of thinking - when we stop judging the actions, mistakes and mis-steps of others we enter a place of quiet inner acceptance and a peacefulness that gently radiates outwardly and even for all we know into the far reaches of the universe ...

Ten Top 10 Tarot Tips And Tricks




Music Zig Zag By Kevin Macleod 

 

  

TEN terrific tarot tips and tricks here for your oracular delight and delectation are ten awesomely amazing, terrific tarot tips and tricks.  





One tip it's all in the shuffle. Mixing the cards up so they are completely random, and that any previous reading doesn't influence the order of the cards. For the next reading, you can learn to riffle shuffle tarot cards by cutting the deck into two equal halves, then hold these halves in each hand. Place your thumbs at the top of the stack of cards and bend your middle fingers and put them along the opposite edge of each card stack. Move the stacks closer together, and then gently move your thumbs in an upward direction against the edges of each card stack. Now the cards should overlap one another as they are shuffled, and if at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again. 



Two trick to attract love and romance to your life. Place the lovers card and the two of cups on your altar or mantelpiece. Or even on your bedside table. Place a red candle beside the lovers tarot card and a pink candle on the side of the Two of cups. Tarot card. Each evening, light the candles and spend five minutes thinking about love and sex and your ideal partner. Then blow out the candles and say thank you. Rinse and repeat until Mr. or Miss Right appears in your real three dimensional life.



Three tip get in the zone. This little piece of useful and heartfelt advice applies to tarot card readers and those who are getting a tarot reading equally. Make sure that you are in the right frame of mind before consulting the tarot for yourself or others seeking a tarot reading. You don't have to be jumping up and down for joy, but it's imperative that you are feeling balanced and energised. Then, as a professional tarot cards reader, you will be able to conduct an accurate tarot reading for your client. And in like manner, if you're the tarot client, chances are when you're in the zone, the tarot cards drawn in the reading will enlighten you!



Four trick to attract money to yourself. Get yourself a mini tarot card. Stick one of those mini tarot decks in a tin will be perfect for this. Also, get a purse or wallet which has at least five separate compartments, and put your £5 notes or $5 notes or whatever currency pertains to your corner of the world, and place the mini Ace of Pentacles card in your purse compartment with your fivers. This card will help you to attract new money making opportunities. 



Then put the Four of Pentacles and any £10 or $10 notes, or any other currency notes in the denomination of ten, in a separate compartment in your purse. This card should help stop you from wasting your money, so that you only spend your money on important and worthwhile things. 



Seven is a pretty lucky number, so seven it shall be. Find the Seven of Pentacles card and put this in another separate compartment of your purse or wallet. Now get a £20 or $20 note, or the currency particular to the country you live in, and put the note or notes in your purse or wallet so they are accompanied by the Seven of Pentacles. This card will help you attract good luck with business or job opportunities. 



Next it's time to utilise the energy of the Nine of Pentacles by putting this card in your purse compartment for £50 or $50 notes or your particular currency. The Nine of Pentacles will help you draw all manner of money, opportunities, and abundance. If you don't have a £50 or $50 note, still put the Nine of Pentacles card inside your wallet or purse compartment, and on a small piece of paper, write £50 or $50 or whatever currency you're 50 money note will be, and place this piece of paper in your wallet or purse, along with the Nine of Pentacles, and then expect a £50 or $50 note to as if by magic, manifest and make its way to your purse.



Okay, so now it's time for the hundreds. If you have a $100 bill or whatever your national currency is, presuming that they use the 100 denomination, place this in a separate compartment within your purse or wallet, and also put the Ten of Pentacles card with it. This card can help attract such an abundant amount of money that you will be easily. Able to share it with family and friends. If you don't have a $100 bill, then you could even exchange your local currency for a US $100 bill and place this in your purse or wallet. Or instead you could write on a piece of paper the United States of America $100 and place this in the separate compartment, along with the Ten of Pentacles, and then be amazed when 100 American dollars magically comes to you.



Remember that whenever you take money out of your purse or wallet to pay for something, look at the said tarot card, also tucked away with the note or notes.



Five tip use a tarot deck you truly resonate with. After all, it's not much use turning to a deck for advice or insights into personal and emotional development or fortune telling. If you feel lacklustre about it and don't feel an affinity with the images or energy of the said tarot deck. The great thing about the internet age is that you can easily source images for various tarot card decks online, or find video reviews so you don't even have to try before you buy. And any tarot decks in your possession which you don't connect with, give away or swap.



Six trick. Get to know the energy of each tarot card. This can easily be done in two very practical ways. At the beginning of each day, shuffle your tarot cards while at the same time asking the universe or the tarot to show you what the energy of your day is going to be like, and then pluck a card from the deck and put this card on your mantelpiece. Or write the card name in your diary for the day's specific date. Then, at the end of the day, dwell on what happened throughout your day and compare the day's events with the meanings and or images for the particular tarot deck card you drew in the morning. You can also record the happenings of the day in your diary or journal, underneath the date and name of the card you pulled. Of course, you can also do this in reverse, and instead, at the end of the day, by shuffling the cards and then asking the question what sort of energy has my day had? And then pluck a card from your tarot deck. Then work out how your day connects and coincides with the tarot card you've just drawn.



Seven tip go to bed with your tarot deck. Yes, that's right, as odd as this first sounds, wrap your favourite deck of tarot cards in a silk scarf, or put the cards in a tarot bag or purse and then place them under your pillows at night. Pillows is much more preferable to just a single pillow, as even though you are a beautiful princess or prince of the universe, you don't want to be like the Princess and the pea. And instead of feeling a pea in your bed, feeling a stack of cards under your head, sleeping with your tarot deck underneath your pillows can help you form a closer bond with your deck, and it can even enhance the prospect of having the odd tarot related dream or two, or a few



Eight trick intuition instead of tuition, we can get so bogged down with learning all the various meanings and astrological aspects of the tarot cards that we sometimes forget to use our own satnav. Super amazing transformative navigation, also known as our own inner navigation system. So the next time you read the cards, why not go with the first word, idea or visual that comes to your mind, or any meanings that your dreams about tarot have given to you in the wee hours of the night. Ride the magic wave and go with the flow.



Nine tip read the images on the tarot cards. If you are conducting a reading for either a friend, yourself or even professionally, and for some reason your mind goes totally blank. Instead of trying to recall the textbook meanings for the cards, actually read the cards as though the illustrations and images are telling a story. What do you see when you look at each tarot card in the spread? What is happening? What is the person doing? What mood do the predominant colours of each card convey? What do the various symbols on the cards mean? And so on, ad infinitum.



Ten trick Tarot Moon Magic Imbue your tarot deck with out of this world energy by using the natural, intuitive power of the moon. On the night of the full moon, put your stack of tarot cards with the moon card facing upwards on the top of the deck and the star card next underneath it on a windowsill or even outside if your cards will stay dry and place a large crystal or gemstone on the top. If you have a crystal ball, you can arrange your tarot deck with the moon and star cards facing upwards so they are reflected in the crystal ball, with the rest of the tarot deck stacked alongside the crystal ball with a crystal or gemstone placed on top. This will add greater synergy to both your deck of cards, as well as your crystal ball for the next few weeks, until the full moon next appears. Your tarot cards and crystal ball and gemstones for that matter, will amaze you in all sorts of magical ways. You're bound to have some tarot tricks and tips of your own, but that's our top ten terrific tarot tips and tricks list. Hope you like it!
